            • my suggestion is not specific to any product but is more of a general nature. i have been working with components from a few 3rd party vendors and one of them has been implementing rather successfully the concept of points. each user of the site is awarded points for reporting a bug, making a feature suggestion etc. the points awarded vary accordfing to the type of issue (e.g. bug=100 points, new feature = 50 points). the points can be redeemd for money when purchasing again on the online store of the vendor where each 100 points = 1$. i really think you should implement something like this on your site. sometimes i choose not to report a bug because of all the time loss on my side explaining the problem. however i did notice that for the specific 3rd party vendor i am talking about i write about almost every bug/idea. and got to a very nice 200$ discount for my subscription renewal. these 200$ are not a loss for the vendor but rather a gain because their products are more stable and work better.

              what do you think?

          Hi Dan,

          The idea has merit, but I can't tell you whether we will implement it in the future or not. I've set it to the "Accepted - release TBD" status, and we will discuss it further.

          Thanks,
          Max
